Annual Minutes do NOT need to filed with State of Florida

CONSUMER ALERT! Please be aware that COMPLIANCE SERVICES (not to be confused with the Florida corporation, Compliance Services, Inc.) is mailing notices to new business entities wanting “Annual Minutes” and a fee of $125. be paid for filing.

These notices are NOT from the Dept. of State, Division of Corporations. “Annual Minutes” are NOT required to be filed with any agency (in an audit the IRS may ask for them to prove you are acting as a corporation.. if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck kind of thing….. if you need to know more about the QUACKing thing, contact us at www.USATaxHelp.com 

Annual Minutes are to be kept by the business entity itself. Please do not confuse these notices with the messages sent by the Division of Corporations reminding each business entity to file its 2010 Annual Report.
